i had been looking for a ball with a particle type reaction but for a drier lane condition. the TP seemed like it fit the bill.
ball specs: @3 oz top wt, pin @3.25in out.
drilling: 4x4, pin outside the ring finger and up a little, cg kicked out to the right 12:00, weight hole @5in right of cg.
light polish
this ball did exactly what i was looking for. i didn't get a chance to even throw a practice ball because the pro shop owner was drilling this for me. out of the box 268. carried very well. one ten pin in three games. shot 679 but should have been a lot better. got lazy on a few shots.
very predictable, smooth arc, and hit like a truck. thanks to storm for another great ball. good compliment to my eraser for drier conditions.

This ball is my most versatile in my arsonal which consist of atleast one ball from all storms lines.  If its oily i can move right and slow it down a little and it strikes.  If there dry just keep moving inside and find some head oil and the ball just keeps on striking.  Another great ball by the people at storm.

This is my second review of this ball.  I previously left it in box condition, 4 inch pin, 2 inch cg with a balance hole on the axis.  In box condition, this ball quickly polished up from the lane and tended to be a little skiddish in head oil despite the drilling.  While the ball had its place it was helpless with any oil down the lane, yet would still over react on very dry outsides.

I took the tour power down to a 6oo wet sand and was modestly surprised with the results.  While still not what you would call a hook monster the ball had much more control thru the heads and into the break point.  It remains to be seen whether the hitting power will be there, but I now have a ball that I can throw on flooded heads with strong back ends.  don't be afraid to mess with the shell on this ball.  It may be one of the more tweakable ball out there.  Anyone with plenty of hand should definitely have a tour power.

My Tour Power is drilled "label" 105 degree ... pin 4 1/2 from pap and
cg bumped slightly negative.  Surface is box with an occasional
clean up with track magic reaction plus.
This ball has been best when playing outside, down the boards.
It reads the lane ... arcs and hits on the right condition, which
is medium to drier, so far.
It has also been a good spare ball due to its lower flare and
predictability.

The Tour Power, my personal favorite, i had drilled 4x4 pin over the ring and the mass bias just outside below the ring, sanded 600 grit.  This ball was the most consistantly forgiving ball i have ever thrown.  No matter where i threw it it always made a turn directly toward the pocket.  With this ball i threw directly from the center out to the five-board and with the sanded coverstock it took an earlier snap put always strong and toward the pocket.  Very great ball for any moderate hook player.

Drilled up like my er (pin above and right over ring finger, cg lined up with pin, extra hole) this is my first ball out every where except the dry house i bowl at. I find the oil, and the shot w/this ball, and if it doesn't come up, or comes up to much, i simpily swich balls. This ball tells you where the oil is, and the line to play. HARD snap when there is any backend at all, nice arc of there isn't. Carry is awesome. Couple of 9's every once in a while, but this keeps the pins low, and everything falls. One thing about the ball getting beat up, i got this w/the ultra hot (thanx alot guys at buddies!!) and use them equally, and the ball gets nicks and cuts more than any other ball i've ever owned, I'm soon to order a new one to sit in the closet untill this one is cut to its death.
The pleasure has been yours.
The great one

3" pin, 2.25 starting top. Laid out pin right of ring, CG below the centerline and right of stacked about 1 1/2". Call it about a 4 1/2 x 3, by my crude tape measure. Needed a 1" weight hole.

I genuinely like my Tour Power because it's the modern ball that most closely resembles my all-time favorite: the Track Critical Mass. But to sit down and write about it - well, it's like writing about tofu. It's bland and flavorless in its own right, but masterful at absorbing and adapting to its surroundings. Tour Power is best defined by what it's not: it's not weak, not strong;  not too early, not too long; mostly but not completely arcy, not at all snappy; a middling good hitter that just seems to carry effectively. To steal a phrase from Steven Wright, it's an "Extra Medium."

Especially on sport patterns, I like a ball with a bit of shell. By necessity, I own several light oil balls, but what's hard to find is a revvable mild ball with some surface. Things like the Track Magic, the solid Beast didn't give me the same control in the mids that this one does. For me, 800 is just the right amount of surface for this core.  

"Skid" or "lope" don't quite describe it; Tour Power "finesses" the heads. It revs up just enough to get a late read on the mids. It doesn't so much "sniff out the pocket" as you often read, but rather sniffs the breakpoint, then arcs with a good hard roll. I've yet to see anything that is more consistent at the breakpoint. From the shape of its move, you would swear it was an ultra light-load particle. As a bonus, you get as much length as some pearls.  

When I bought it, I swore it would be a dedicated tournament ball, but it keeps sneaking into my league bag somehow. Tour Power doesn't really shine on a league shot, but it's a quintessential light to medium ball for your tournament bag. It's a versatile control ball that still carries. The truly great attribute of the Tour Power is that it's the easiest thing in the world to stay lined up with. For me, the best use is on a lighter shot, going up the boards with half a hand.

Sure hope Tour Power shows up in a different incarnation down the road.

Versatility: 8. Light to medium, tweakable cover. Good on league, great on sport shots in this range. Not intimidated by a bit of carrydown. Half a point off for being a stubborn Storm with its own idea of how it likes to be thrown.

Control 10. You can stay lined up with it all night. A finesse ball, for those brutal first couple of games on a sport pattern before you get them opened up, and you have to put the ball into a shot glass at 45'.

Hit & Carry: 9. Not the type of ball to make people migrate from the other end of the house to see what's making all the noise. It's just quietly efficient and effective. Don't expect a lot of shocking backrow stuff from an overpowered core.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

i got this ball from my freind for 20 bucks so i didnt exspect much. i was rong. this ball did it all and more. it was a good heavy oil ball but it realy does its best on the medium lane conditions.
